Hello
I’m new to the group. Hoping someone can help. I have a 2008 base dohc n12
Anyone know the size of the pin that connects the piston to the connecting rod? I can’t seem to find the exact answer. Keep hearing between 18mm and 22mm

Thank you

gudgeon pin is same size on all prince engines so 1.4 1.6 amd turbo are all same. the pistons are different on 1.4 and 1.6 and turbo cars, ie the top crown and how much distance from pin to crown. its not as easy as 22m or 18mm its how many mill and then the 0.10mm measurement for the fitment to the piston, its that bearing that tends to fail from bad maos maybe,

Thank you. Weisco said the pistons fit for the n12 they had to look them up on their European site as they didn’t list them on the us site. So hopefully they are correct. I think the compression was 10:1 I don’t have the part number on me at the moment. They have the 4 valve reliefs. They will take 2-3 weeks to make not bad price 517 for 4 with rings and pins
